A superb Susanna and an excellent Count make this small-scale, traditional and period Marriage of Figaro from Regents Opera feel truly fresh and alive. 

Giornata Opera picked Puccini’s often-neglected personal favourite of his Trittico, Suor Angelica, to perform at St Paul’s Church, Covent Garden. The second half is well worth the wait.

Donizetti’s melodramma giocoso in two acts, L’elisir d’amore, is a light-hearted tale of love overcoming all obstacles, with the help of a little “love potion”.
